Objective To probe into the feasibility and applicability of the foodborne
food risk monitoring and sentinel
hospital foodborne disease surveillance on the
Salmonella serotype identification by liquid phase
suspension array.
Methods The
serotyping of
Salmonella isolates was performed by traditional
glass agglutination test. Meanwhile, the liquid phase
suspension array was operated to analyze the
antigen O, H and AT for
classification identification. Results From 2012 to 2019, a total of 215
strains of
Salmonella were collected divided into 38
serotypes, 96% of them could be analyzed by SSA kit. The results of xMAP were in accordance with the traditional
agglutination. 8 of the 11
strains which cannot be checked out by
glass agglutination seemed to be easy detected by liquid phase
suspension array. Conclusion The liquid phase
suspension array has advantages of high throughput, high
sensitivity and high
specificity. It is able to detect the
Salmonella serotype rapidly during a short
time. Compared with the traditional
serum agglutination method, the liquid phase
suspension array has obvious advantages in
detection time. It can be useful and important in the break out of
foodborne disease caused by
Salmonella spp.
